Description
Porter class are technically most known sign of Tower's Merchant Fleet power. Thus they're not capital cargo ships, it's quite common to see a bunch of them flying from station to station, and planet to planet. As lone ship, Porter is quite fragile to attacks of marauders bigger than a fighter squadron - It posses a self-defence installations, but it's actually wiser to keep them in groups, and even better with escort of more battle-ready ships.
It has, however, quite good defensive properties - Tower cares about their cargo, and it's usually a hard task to shot down even a single Porter without specialised equipment. That's why this class is commonly used for military deliveries, and is liked among civilians for low chance of pirate raids.
